Using "instead" would require changing the language syntax as the only 
infix word-like operators allowed are "and", "or", "xor", "and then", 
"or else" and "implies".

I tried to find something that didn't require changes to syntax.

Indeed I may ask someone from ISE, or even professor Bertrane Meyer 
himself for a common syntax.

I still vote for "or" though....
